"But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, which shines brighter and brighter until full day." This proverb is a wonderful promise to God's people and uses a beautiful figure of speech to portray the promise of God's guidance and direction over a life surrendered to His will. If you have ever observed a sunrise, you know that as the dawn begins to turn night to day some flickers of light burst over the horizon. As the sun breaks the horizon more light is gradually projected from the sun. However, it is not until the sun is well above the horizon that the full light of day is emitted. Now if you happen to be out for a walk or run before sunrise in an unlit area, you know that you have to watch your step until the sun is fully risen in order to see clearly the path or road you are following.
When you have surrendered your will to God's will, He will light the way and make it clearer and clearer where you are going as you continue to follow the path that He has set for your life.
